Italian artist Roberta Gigante’s (b. 1986) career and oeuvre is extremely diverse: from sound installations and interventions in the public space to sculptures with glass spheres, neon sculptures and classically looking works on paper. Her works are subtle, playful and light. They fascinate and arouse curiosity. Their exceptional aesthetics lure the viewer into a higher state of concentration and reflection.
Roberta Gigante won twice the prize Meesterproef 2010 Vlaamse Bouwmeester for three different projects in public space and was shortlisted for the Belgian Prize for Architecture and Public Space in 2013. She participated in group exhibitions in M HKA, Antwerp (2021), Espace 251 Nord, Liège (2015, 2022) and CC Strombeek (2014, 2017). She has permanent works in public space in Ghent and Antwerp.
